Re: [BKARTS] Artist biographies & sketchbooks

[Christine Cassidy <christinecassidy@xxxxxxx>]

I just received a lovely and interesting large format book (read  
coffee table size) that fits into these categories too.

"Illustrated Letters -  Artists and Writers Correspond" edited by  
Roselyne de Ayala and Jean-Pierre Gueno (from Harry N. Abrams  
Publishers).

It has letters with sketches from Balzac, Delacroix, George Sand,  
Victor Hugo, Van Gogh, Picasso, Gauguin and many more.  I am  
particularly interested to see the handwriting of the correspondents.
